I watch a lot of the home improvement and decorating shows. One of the fundamental rules of decorating is the rule of threes. What this rule means is when decorating like items should be grouped together in threes because that is more pleasing to the eye. Imagine my surprise when I saw this rule being applied to blogs!
The premise is and I cannot attest as to whether or not this is effective when it comes to effectiveness but it does appear to behind the theory of the linked within widget that shows three related posts at the end of each post. The recommendation is if you aren't using this widget to include links to three related posts and somewhere on your blog you should have the links to your 3 most popular posts. I would think the links to the most popular posts would be most effective if they appear in the space before the current posts occur.
My experience with the linked within widget has been favourable giving an average of 2 hits per day. I do like the idea of links to the 3 most popular posts especially on my cooking blog but this tends to be season specific so while somewhat effective I don't feel it is the best strategy especially when those posts show up in searching via keywords. I like the idea of using the rule of threes but I'm just not sure how effective it is for blogging.
